Question

Given that events A and B are independent with P(A)=0.26P(A)=0.26 and P(B)=0.6P(B)=0.6, determine the value of P(B|A)P(B∣A), rounding to the nearest thousandth, if necessary.

Answer 1

Two events A and B are said to be independent if,

`P((B)/(A))=P(B)`

Given that P(B) is 0.6,

`P((B)/(A))=0.6`

Thus, the required probability is 0.6
